The Pine Forge Academy Foundation greatly appreciates cash donations in any form, including foreign currency, US dollars drawn on foreign banks, or foreign "dollars". The Foundation gives its donors gift credit in US dollars for the value of the donation, based on current exchange rates, as of the day of receipt.
It is important to know that the Foundation incurs what can amount to substantial bank fees to process these types of gifts. Foreign currency or checks drawn on foreign banks are assessed a $50.00 US per item handling fee. US currency items drawn on foreign banks will be assessed fees ranging from $2.00 to $5.00.
Unfortunately there are times when the fees associated with a gift of this type outweigh the gift itself. In these rare cases, the Foundation must decline to accept the gift and respectfully ask the donation be made via US dollars or written on a check drawn from a US bank.
Please consult your financial institution for more information on the current US exchange rates.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the Foundation Office.
